Mendota & Mendota Heights, Minnesota

Mendota Heights is one of the Twin Cities' premier suburbs, offering high quality residential and business areas. The influence of river bluffs, rolling topography and wooded areas has provided an excellent setting for residential development. The topography led to the creation of a curvilinear local street system and allowed for intimate residential neighborhoods to be nestled amongst mature wooded settings, lakes, wetlands, nature preserves and the Mississippi and Minnesota River bluffs.

Located just south of St. Paul, across the winding Minnesota River, Mendota Heights is a community of luxurious homes set on rolling hills and dotted with several small lakes.
